Three men are facing burglary charges for allegedly stealing medications from a Walgreens in Dutchess County.
State police say it happened at the location on State Route 55 in the Town of Lagrange.
They say the suspects jumped over the pharmacy counter and stole numerous medications before fleeing in a black Toyota Camry. Troopers eventually spotted the vehicle on the Taconic State Parkway and tried to stop the car. The suspects eventually crashed on Pudding Street, off of the parkway. All three suspects fled the vehicle on foot but were apprehended a short time later.
No weapons were displayed during the incident.
The three suspects are identified as Darryl A. Odom Jr., 25, from Manhattan, Jason Wade, 21, from Brooklyn, and Bahkeem Cooke, 22, from Brooklyn. Wade and Odom were turned over to the NYPD on outstanding charges.
All three men are due back in LaGrange Town Court next month to face numerous charges.
